Thinking about Michael WaltripWhat’s this about Michael and Buffy Waltrip, maybe, having…issues?  I gotta get out more often.  Valli was a guest ON PIT ROW Tuesday.  She says that’s the most popular search on her blog.  I’m shocked.

So I saw this post about Michael Waltrip Racing’s big plans for the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard  at Scene Daily.  They didn’t ask Mikey about his domestic tranquility, or lack of same.  Waltrip did talk about what he calls generation three of MWR’s version of the CoT, and how his team has improved the car – citing lower weight, and how lowering the center of gravity is a key, to him,  in improving the New Car.

“Drivers talk about how this car is heavier than the old cars. That means the center of gravity is very critical. A way that I can explain this is if Jeff Gordon and I are racing, and if he has a lower center of gravity in comparison to mine, then he will have the ability to make it through the corners faster.”

Of course, if Mikey has a lower center of gravity than Jeff Gordon, Gordon will still be faster through the corner than Waltrip.  I mean, he’s Jeff Gordon for cryin’ out loud!

    Tracking blog hits can be interesting.

    Over the past year my blog’s number one hit is:

    “Elliott Sadler’s girlfriend”

    number two?
    “Elliott Sadler breakup”

    and I have never even mention her by name, but I got probably a 200 or so hits a week with those searches.

    Yeah, I hear this stuff all the time. So what about Elliott’s babe? I need a scoop.

    Charlie,
    Esad gals are one thing that I won’t touch on my blog. Everything else is pretty much fair game! ;)

    In the end, I just want him to run a bit faster, and turn left a bit better on Sundays and the occasional Saturdays.

    Why is everyone acting like Micheal and Buffy is some big surprise? They have been seperated for quite awhile and are in the process of a divorce. She is walking away with some serious $$$ since MW was playing slap and tickle with anything with “F” on their birth certificate.

    Sorta like where did Mike’s oldest daugher come from……not wedlock…..

    In fact, Buffy has already latched onto a new Sugardaddy who is quite younger than she is. She took her…..um….store-bought floatation devices and moved in with him in a house in Charlotte some time ago.

    I had NO idea about Michael & Buffy until now, guess I have been living under a rock or something! Wow, I am surprised however, any more news or info about this situation. I did see the House for sale on a website for $10.5 Million.

    And who is this younger Guy with money by the way?

    Just curious……please tell us more.
